Hello,

For Christmas I bought the 10 inch tall Justice League figures. Batman, Superman, the Flash, and Green Lantern. Unfortunately, the back of the box shows that only those four are available at the moment.

Does anybody know when the rest of the team is coming out as 10 inch tall figures? I would love to decorate my room in college with the whole team, not just four of them.

When are Martian Manhunter, Wonder Woman, and Hawkgirl coming out?

Thanks

Wonder Woman and Manhunter are out now, along with Aquaman. Hawkgirl currently isn't planned for release--though I'd magine she would be.

So far, WW, MH and Aquaman have only been seen at Target...and WW is one per case, I believe (lovely, isn't it? :p).

Pretty lovley actually. Wonder what's the deal about not releasing the Hawkgirl figure. Maybe they're figuring out what other powers to put into her mace of doom :D

Hm... It seems like they made a lot of the 10" GL figures or no one wants him because that's almost the only one I see. I did see some Flash and Supes the last time I went out to the stores. Ah how I'd like to see those others.

not true. i bought my 2 Aquaman figs at Wal-Mart
i've been chekcing every Target in my metro area since i first saw them being scalped online ($30 HA!)

mattel has really mishandled justice league (over abundance of variants and low availability of regular cast members...oh, and no villains til 2004?)

Ah...very good. I had just heard reports of the newest wave being at Target... :)

Mattel seems to ship the wrong amount of everything--apparently toy companies have never heard of even-packing--even if one toy is more popular than another, they can just send out more later on, instead of deciding for themselves which figures will be popular...

I have seen a number of Aquaman 10" at my local Targets, but no WW or MM as of yet. I have also heard they're appearing around the country currently. I suspect we'll see tons of 'em within the next few months, as stores slowly re-stock from the xmas rush.

I picked up the two-packs of the first four at Toys R US on Black Friday...just $9.99 each, so that's $5 per 10"...can't beat that with a stick!

Finally saw a Flying Superman at the toy store in the Mall today.. So that's what it looks like, that's the first one I'd seen in person. That was the only JL thing left, the whole place was practically cleaned out.

I got a new Superman with articulation from K-Mart. Its pretty kool. I didnt see GL articulated but I wouldve got him if i did. On the back of the box they showed a new WW fig coming out with armor, and i believe a red cape was on her (sort of like a variant of her costume in Hereafter at a certain memorial. O, and did I mention tehy showed that DARKSEID is coming out as well! Finally!
